A(2025山东济南三模)
Esther Kimani,a 29-year-old pioneer in agritech,is changing the lives of smallholder farmers across Africa.As the founder of Farmer Lifeline Technologies(FLT),she has applied artificial intelligence(AI) to fight against crop pests(害虫) and diseases,significantly reducing losses for rural farmers.
Kimani’s journey began in a small Kenyan village on the Aberdare Mountains.Witnessing firsthand the severe impact of pests and diseases on their crops—and consequently,their income—she understood early how agricultural losses could mean unmet basic needs like school fees and healthcare.Despite these challenges,Kimani became the first girl from her village to attend university,studying computer science.It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers’ struggles,and that’s how FLT was born.
In Kenya alone,7.5 million smallholder farmers lose up to 50% of their yield(产量) to pests and diseases annually—losses that could feed millions.Traditional solutions like hiring agricultural consultants or using drones(无人机) are prohibitively expensive.To solve this critical issue,she developed an AI-powered camera,which is set up on farms at no upfront cost.It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service(SMS) for $3 per month when pests or diseases are detected.
A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers,who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations,but who often lack access to technology.“Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones,while women rely on basic feature phones,” she notes.“Through SMS,we ensure women aren’t left behind.”
Kimani’s innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers,78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%.Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years.For Kimani,success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity—affording education,healthcare,and financial stability through improved yields.Kimani is not just building a company;she’s reshaping the future of African agriculture.
1.Why did Kimani found FLT
A.To fund rural farmers.
B.To transform farming.
C.To expand AI industry.
D.To research crop types.
2.How does the AI-powered camera help farmers
A.By sending them timely warnings.
B.By connecting them to consultants.
C.By controlling drones to scan crops.
D.By driving pests away automatically.
3.What is an advantage of Kimani’s innovation
A.Equal access.
B.Tailored service.
C.Large storage.
D.Easy maintenance.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Financial policies affect agriculture.
B.African agriculture will take the lead.
C.Kimani will pursue further education.
D.Kimani’s innovation powers a bright future.
B(2026河南郑州月考)
When you look at the colorful rows of fruits and vegetables in the grocery store,you might think you’re getting all the nutrients you need.But recent studies show that today’s crops have fewer nutrients than what our grandparents ate decades ago.This decline is alarming and could affect our health in the future.
Over the past 70 years,many fruits,vegetables,and grains have lost significant amounts of protein,calcium,iron,and vitamins.A review in the journal Foods in 2024 called this a major challenge for future generations.This is especially important as more people are encouraged to eat plant-based diets for health and environmental reasons.
David Montgomery,a professor at the University of Washington,warns that this nutrient decline means our food is less effective at preventing chronic(慢性的) diseases.Even if you eat lots of fresh produce,what you’re eating today is less nutritious than what your grandparents ate,says Kristie Ebi,an expert in climate change and health.
The problem lies in modern farming practices.Methods that increase crop harvest often harm soil health.Irrigation,fertilization,and harvesting prevent the natural interactions between plants and soil fungi(真菌),reducing nutrient absorption.Climate change and rising carbon dioxide levels also play a role in lowering nutrient content.
A major study in 2004 found that 43 garden crops had less protein,calcium,iron,and vitamin C compared to 50 years earlier.More recent studies show similar trends in Australian vegetables and wheat,with significant drops in iron and protein.
This nutrient decline affects not just plant-based diets but also meat.Animals now eat less nutritious grasses and grains,making meat and dairy products less nutritious too.
Scientists urge us not to worry too much but to pay attention to how our food is grown.Montgomery says understanding the impact of farming practices gives us a new reason.As the population grows,we need to protect and restore our farmland to ensure healthy food for everyone.
5.Why does the author mention what our grandparents ate
A.To criticize modern diets.
B.To compare farming costs.
C.To highlight nutrient loss.
D.To promote traditional recipes.
6.What does Montgomery reveal about modern farming practices
A.They put soil health first.
B.They improve crop variety.
C.They reduce carbon dioxide.
D.They ruin disease prevention.
7.What is scientists’ advice about nutrient decline
A.Caring about agriculture.
B.Focusing on food quantity.
C.Avoiding plant-based diets.
D.Eating less processed foods.
8.What is the text mainly about
A.The decrease of nutrients in crops.
B.The consequence of plant-based diets.
C.The worsening health conditions of humans.
D.The big problems of modern farming practices.
C(2025安徽合肥二模)
Precision agriculture is one of the most significant trends in modern farming.One particularly promising application involves the use of real-time imaging to visualize how tiny drops of liquid are forming on plant surfaces.Unlike conventional agriculture where farmers often rely on general estimates and uniform application of pesticides(杀虫剂) across the entire field,this technology helps farmers maximize productivity while minimizing inputs.
This development originated from the work of Vishnu Jayaprakash,who had some family exposure to the process of spraying(喷洒) crops and recognized that the main challenge in that process was how to make water-based sprays interact effectively with the surfaces of plants.Several factors influence this process,including the pressure,flow and nozzle(喷嘴) design of the application device,and the temperature,sunlight intensity,wind and other conditions at the time of spraying.
To effectively address this issue,Jayaprakash developed a two-camera system that can be connected to typical spraying equipment.The system uses imaging of the sprayed solution on the target plants to determine necessary adjustments for the best degree of coverage with appropriately sized tiny drops.The system can be used to make on-the-go adjustments in order to get the spray coverage “just right”.This allows farmers to use only 20%-30% of the product per acre(英亩) while maintaining key functions like pest control,fertilization,and growth regulation.
The advancement in precision agriculture is helping farmers reduce costs while maintaining crop protection.Susan Scheufele,an extension researcher at the University of Massachusetts,has conducted field trials with this technology on vegetable crops.In trials for cotton leaf removal,it has shown positive results even when used at 50% of the minimum recommended application rate on the product label.
The primary benefit of precision agriculture methods lies beyond cost savings.Despite the fact that this technology still has a long way to go,its adoption ensures that chemical residues in crops are well below harmful levels,safeguarding ecosystems and food safety.
9.What can be learned about precision agriculture in paragraph 1
A.It visualizes plants more clearly.
B.It uses pesticides more accurately.
C.It continuously monitors plant growth.
D.It estimates the need of the entire field.
10.How does Jayaprakash’s two-camera system work
A.By guiding spraying equipment to target plant surfaces.
B.By calculating the precise amount of pesticide required.
C.By making real-time adjustments to enhance spray coverage.
D.By using imaging to monitor plant growth and health closely.
11.Why does the author mention Susan Scheufele’s field trials
A.To analyze the responses of different crops.
B.To compare the application rates across crops.
C.To illustrate the effectiveness of the technology.
D.To highlight the limitations of traditional farming.
12.What is the author’s attitude towards precision agriculture
A.Intolerant.　　　B.Doubtful.
C.Unclear. D.Approving.

Imagine climbing a mountain and getting half way up and saying to yourself,“You know what,I’m going to climb back down and finish this later.”
　13　 We have projects that sit waiting to be completed.Some people start college but never graduate.We have books that we never finish reading.　14　 Many people are great at beginning things but can’t seem to finish strong.
Not finishing what we started has been a repeated problem for us.We have to face it.　15　 Whenever we delay,or put to the side,the things that will help us accomplish our goals,we stop developing our potential.
Not finishing not only causes us to stop making progress but also we find it harder whenever we do decide to start again.Consider this:every time I begin a new exercise program my muscles are sore(疼) for a few days.After a few weeks of routine,the muscles get accustomed to the program and grow stronger.Thus,no more sore muscles.Well,when I take some time off I fear starting again.　16　
Strong finishers are able to focus on getting the best result from anything that they start.So how do we know that we are a strong finisher Along with the huge feeling of accomplishment,other people will begin to notice the change.　17　 They will have no choice but to recognize our strong finishing ability.We will be rewarded with more trust from them.
A.The list goes on and on.
B.We should have the confidence.
C.Why don’t we have the interest any more
D.Sounds silly,but that is what we do all of the time.
E.I know that my muscles are going to be sore again.
F.They will see we are able to climb and conquer the mountain.
G.Not being a strong finisher can limit our ability to conquer our goals.
